Ephesus 3
1 Hicheng jouse hi, Christa Yeshua a sohchang Paul keiman chidang namdang nangho phat chomna ding kagelna ahi.
Because [God has done all this for] you non-Jews, I, Paul, [pray for you. I want you to know that it is because I serve] Christ Jesus for your sake that I am in prison.
2 Gah ngaito dia kiloma chu, Pathen in alungsetna homjal dinga mopohna keima eipeh hi chidang namdang nangho henga ahin lhut ahi naheuvin ahi.
I (assume that/think that probably) someone has told you how God acted very kindly toward me, appointing me [so that I would proclaim the gospel to you non-Jews].
3 Keiman agomlama kana jihna a, Pathen in athuguh alunggon chu keima eihetsah ahitai.
God revealed to me the message that he had not revealed to others. When you read what I have already written briefly about that,
4 Keiman kajihsa nasim uva kon chun, Christa a hiche tohgon thua kahet gil dan hedoh thei tauvin nate.
you will be able to understand that I understand clearly that message about Christ.
5 Hiche hi khang masa ho'ah Pathen in ana phongdoh pon, hinla tun a Lhagao jal in Aman asolchah thengho le themgao ho henga hiche hi ahin phongdoh tai.
Formerly, [God] did not reveal that message to anyone, but now his Spirit has revealed that message to (his holy apostles and prophets/people who tell messages that come directly from God).
6 Chule hiche hi Pathen lunggon ahi: chidang namdang le Juda mite Kipana Thupha tahsan Pathen chate ho chun ahaona gou chu kibang chet a chang ding ahiuve.
That message, which he has now revealed, is that because of our [(inc)] relationship with Christ Jesus, [all of us], non-Jews as well as Jews [MTY], will receive the [great spiritual blessings that God has] promised as we all form one group [MET] [as a result of our believing] the good news [about Christ].
7 Ani lhona chu tipum kibang ahigel lhon in, chule ani lhona phattheina thutep chu chang gel ahi lhon hi Christa Yeshua a ahi jal jeh ahi.
By God powerfully enabling me, and because God acted kindly toward me, doing what I did not deserve, and chose me [to do that work], I became someone who tells others this good message.
8 Keima Pathen mite lah a imacha hiloupen hijeng jongleng, Aman Christa a gou kichaitih umlou chidang namdangho seipeh dinga alung gon chu lungset mana keima heng ahinlhut ahitai.
Although I am the least [worthy] of all God’s people, God kindly [appointed] me to proclaim to the non-Jews the message about the great spiritual blessings that [they can receive] from Christ,
9 Keima hi hiche thuguh tohgon um chu mitin seipeh dinga eikilheng doh ahin, Pathen ijakai sempa chun, atil abula pat a aguh a akoisa ahitai. (aiōn g165)
and to enable everyone to understand clearly how God accomplished what he planned. God, who created everything, [has now revealed] this message, which he never revealed to anyone before. (aiōn g165)
10 Hicheho jousea Pathen lunggon chu houbung mangcha a, chihna a van munhoa ahaona chu mutheilou vaipoho le athunei ho jouse henga phondoh ding ati ahi.
[What he planned] was that all (believers/people who belong to Christ) would be the ones who would reveal to all the ranks [DOU] of spiritual beings in heaven that what God had planned is wise in every way.
11 Hiche hi tonsot'a atohgon ahin, hichu Christa Yeshua i-Pakaiyu jal'a atohdoh ding ahi. (aiōn g165)
That is what God had always planned, and it is what he accomplished by what our Lord Jesus [has done]. (aiōn g165)
12 Christa jal leh Ama itahsan jal uva, tua hi eiho lungngam tah leh kisong tah a Pathen angsung ilut theiyu ahitai.
Because of what he has done and because of our relationship with him, [when we pray] we can approach God confidently and without being afraid.
13 Hijeh chun, hiche mun a keima chungthu kikholna ho jeh hin lunglha hihbeh un. Nangho jeh a keiman kagim thoh hi nanghon sahtah nahiu kihet un.
So I ask that you do not be discouraged because of my suffering many things for you [here in prison]. You should feel honored that I am [willing to] suffer [these things for your sake].
14 Hiche ho jouse hi kagel chun, keima ka dilsun, Pa henga ka taovin ahi.
Because [God has done all this for you], I kneel [and pray] [MTY] to [God our] Father.
15 Ama hi van chunga hihen, leiset chunga hijongleh ijakai sempa ahi.
He is the one who is [like] a father of all [the believers who are now in] heaven and those who are still on the earth.
16 Keima kataona chu ahileh, aloupina, aLhagao Theng a kona aman nangho sunggila kona thahatna beitih nei louva napeh dingu hi ahi.
I pray that, using his unlimited resources, he will cause you to be strengthened by his Spirit {cause his Spirit to strengthen you} in your (inner beings/hearts) with all [God’s] power.
17 Chutengleh Christa chun Ama natahsan jaljeh uva nalungsung uva achen theina ding ahi. Pathen ngailutna a chu na jungkho uva chule nahat dohna ding uvin thuhtah in kivuilut un.
That is, I pray that because of your trusting in Christ, his [Spirit] may live in your (inner beings/hearts) (OR, he may live in your hearts). And I pray that because you love [Christ] firmly and faithfully/continually [MET], you,
18 Chule nanghon Pathen mite jousen anei dingu ahi bangin, tahsan theina thaneina chu neiyun–Angailutna chu ichan geiya len a, saova, sang a, chule thuh a hitam!
along with all other believers, may be able to know how very [DOU] much Christ loves [us(inc)].
19 Nanghon Christa ngailutna hi tepkha teiyun! hiche hetchet ding chu hetjoujai hihih jong leh. Chutengleh hinkho bulhingset pum chule Pathena kona thilboltheina puma nakisem pilhing diu ahi.
I want you to experience how very deeply he loves us, even though it is not possible for us to understand fully [how much he loves us]. And I pray that God will enable you to be filled with {have a full measure of} all the [qualities of his character that] he himself has.
20 Tun loupina jouse chu, athilbol theina hattah a kona isunguva natong'ah, ithumu ahiloule igel'u kalval a hetjoujai hilou subulhit thei, Pathen a hita hen.
[God] is able to do much (greater things/more) than we could ask him to do, or even that we might think that he can do, by his power that is working within us.
